Au Pair in Italy

I am still on my trip :) So far I am loving Italy.  The family that I am Au Pairing with is awesome.  They are fun and outdoorsy and eat healthy just like me.  I have taken the train to visit Lake Como a few times as well as Milan.  Both are beautiful. I will be going to Cinque Terre at the end of May and Hiking the tour de Mt Blanc at the end of June.  I will be sure to update you more on those.  I chose to au pair so I could make money while traveling.  This allows me to see parts of Italy at a slower pace and work at the same time.  My accomodations and food are all provided for me so my expenses are low.  I only pay for my train tickets when I want to go to a new place.  Otherwise I ride a bike the family gives me to where I need to go.  I am getting to learn the language, see the Alps and eat Gelato :)
